People are still asking me if I knew Star Wars was going to be that big of a hit. Yes, we all knew. The only one who didn't know was George.
Carrie Fisher

The great thing about rock and roll is that someone like me can be a star.
Elton John

Alfie was the first time I was above the title; the first time I became a star in America.
Michael Caine

One could not pluck a flower without troubling a star.
Loren Eiseley

I didn't come to New York to be a star, I brought my star with me.
Reggie Jackson

Dave was great in Van Halen. No question about it. He was one of the best at being Mr. Rock Star. But it's sickening to see a guy still trying to be that with a wig on 20 years later.
Sammy Hagar

What is the meaning of the togetherness of the perceiving mind, in that peculiar modification of perceiving which makes it perceive not a star but a tree, and the tree itself, is a problem for philosophy.

Being a rock star is like being a cult leader - you really have to be in your own religion.

Jean Claude Van Damme

I'm not doing this to be a pop star. I've had plenty of money and attention. I'm doing it for credibility.

You become so encapsulated in this world of being a star. People listen to what you say, you have this voice, it becomes unreal and you become far removed from the people you came from.

Tracey Ullman

Christopher Hitchens

The main prank that we play with props is for people's birthdays. The special effects people will put a little explosive in the cake so it blows up in their face - that's always fun to play on a guest star, or one of the trainees or someone who's new.
Catherine Bell

I get mad when people call me an action movie star. Indiana Jones is an adventure film, a comic book, a fantasy.
Harrison Ford

I don't think anyone can tell you what it is that makes you a star.
Desi Arnaz

The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.
Hedy Lamarr

I've been an important star and lived a full life, yet I only hve three close friends. I guess that's all anyone can expect.
Hedy Lamarr

To be a star is to own the world and all the people in it. After a taste of stardom, everything else is poverty.
